3 in Central Kentucky are charged after toddler is tied up

Three members of a Central Kentucky family have been charged with abuse after a 3-year-old girl was tied up for hours at a time.

The State Journal reports from court documents that 64-year-old Carolyn Case, the child's grandmother, and 30-year-old Rebecca Medley, the mother, allegedly tied the girl to her bed from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. Case told police the child was "getting into things" and was also tied up for naps and discipline.
